Juventus make offer for Geoffrey Kondogbia

After several rumors and recommendations made by Pogba it seems that Juventus have decided to pursue the signing of Geoffrey Kondogbia from Seville FC. In the last few days it has been reported that Real Madrid were close to securing his signature but their perseverance in signing Gareth Bale sidelined their efforts to sign the young French man. Juventus Director of Sport, Beppe Marotta, has grabbed the opportunity to make a first offer to Seville. It has been reported that Juventus offered 1.5 million euros for a season long loan deal with the obligation of making the deal permanent should they qualify again to the Champions League.

Seville have already rejected a 12 million offer for Geoffrey Kondogbia from Real Madrid so if Juventus want to sign the youngster they will need to increase their bid although their relationship with Seville is a good one which should provide them a better chance of negotiating a deal. Geoffrey Kondogbia is a France U-21 international. A move to Juventus would mean Champions League football for the youngster and once more playing alongside Paul Pogba in the center of the midfield as they do with the France U-21 side.
